Paperback. Leonid (illustratore). First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Very Good+ in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint of wear to extremities; mildest rubbing; former owner's name discreetly at the upper front end paper; a barely discernible dampstain at the top edge of the last few pages, imparting the slighest waveiness at that point; the pages have tanned somewhat, due to aging; a tiny nick at the top edge of nine pages. Binding shows the slightest lean, while remaining perfectly secure; text clean. Remains close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 203pp. Illustrated with Drawings by Leonid. Winner of the National Book Award. Trade Paperback. On the northwest coast of France, just around the corner from the English Channel, is the little town of Locmariaquer (pronounced "loc-maria-care"). The inhabitants of this town have a special relationship to the world, for it is their efforts that maintain the supply of the famous Belon oysters, called les plates ("the flat ones"). A vivid account of the cultivation of Belon oysters and an excursion into the myths, legends, and rich, vibrant history of Brittany and its extraordinary people, The Oysters of Locmariaquer is also an unforgettable journey to the heart of a fascinating culture and the enthralling, accumulating drama of a unique devotion. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Codice articolo 39634
